Wood to ash to wood

The artificial timber invention by Roy Research and Technology (RRT) is what every recycling enthusiast could only dream of until now. From source to use to waste to back to source, RRT’s artificial timber traces the complete journey.

One of the chief raw materials for the artificial wood is fly ash, which comes from burnt coal, which again is a fossil fuel. Coal comes from fossilized trees. So, wood to fossil fuel and back to wood again!

Disposal problems of fly ash

We are a world predominantly powered by thermal power plants, as are so many across the world. So, wherever there are coal-fired power plants, there is the problem of safe disposal of fly ash. Fly ash is largely a headache to governments, as much more is produced each day than they can possibly ever dispose in a cost-effective and ecologically safe manner.

But with the artificial timber innovation of RRT, fly ash suddenly becomes a raw material, instead of waste. Thus, we create a resource out of nothing, which in turns prevents further depletion of precious forests.

Fly ash utilization has been till now predominantly focused on land fills, but this is not viable. Firstly, our planet does not have enough space to accommodate all the fly ash in landfills. Secondly, it is always better to use the products of coal combustion rather than just dispose it, simply because there’s so much of it. And, when we can do this in an environmentally compatible and economically feasible way, you have a unique proposition for conservation of the earth’s resources.

With our technology, we make fly ash into a resource that’s quickly becoming scarce: wood. Our artificial timber has all the qualities of wood that make it such an excellent material for furniture, in-door flooring, and can behave better than wood, too: it’s non-inflammable, resistant to termites, rot, and has enough strength to be used in construction as shatter wood.

The simplicity of the artificial wood-making process

Recycling is seldom done enthusiastically and this is only partly because we don’t care to do much for the environment. The other important reasons are the lack of incentives and the cost attached to recycling itself. Also, frequently, recycling itself consumes significant amounts of power and labour.

Not so, with RRT’s artificial wood.

Because, first, it is made through a process that requires minimal power and labour. Also, the process does not create pollution or release heat or any kind of greenhouse gases.

Secondly, it requires minimum labour or investment in capital. Thus, the long-term and running costs of the artificial timber plant are minimal.

Thirdly, and, most importantly, there is a highly lucrative and ready market for the product of such recycling.

So, there is a market incentive here to recycle apart from the huge ecological benefit of conserving rainforests. And, thus, with RRT’s artificial wood, we present to the world a unique way of using fly ash from which you not only achieve environmental goals and earn carbon credits but also create economic value from waste.
